Burial Ground

Penkridge Parish Council is responsible for the management of the Pinfold Lane Burial Ground.  We aim to provide a quality, caring service and maintain an attractive Burial Ground for people of all different religions and cultural backgrounds.

The Parish Council is based at the Haling Dene Centre in Penkridge and we have professional staff sympathetic to the needs of the bereaved.  We are responsible for the day to day contact with Funeral Directors and members of the public.  In most cases, funerals are organised by Funeral Directors, however families may make arrangements themselves and deal directly with us.

Please note that we will charge premium fees to families of non-residents of Penkridge Parish who wish for their relatives to be interred at Pinfold Lane Burial Ground.  For the Council’s Rules and Regulations and Table of Fees please see below or contact the Haling Dene Centre

Penkridge Parish Council is a corporate member of the Institute of Cemetery and Crematorium Management (ICCM).

The burial records and registers for the Burial Ground are held at the Parish Council offices.  If you wish to view these records then please contact us in advance in order to make an appointment.  The office is open to the public from 9:00am to 5:00pm Monday to Friday, but closed during weekends and public holidays.
